WC_WCCOM_Site::get_authorization_header │ protected static │ WC 3.7.0

Get the authorization header.

On certain systems and configurations, the Authorization header will be stripped out by the server or PHP. Typically this is then used to generate PHP_AUTH_USER/PHP_AUTH_PASS but not passed on. We use getallheaders here to try and grab it out instead.

Method of the class: WC_WCCOM_Site{}

No Hooks.

Returns

String. Authorization header if set.

Usage

$result = WC_WCCOM_Site::get_authorization_header();
